The terminal ileum is the final section of the small intestine, where it connects to the large intestine, while the rectum is the last part of the large intestine leading to the anus. Having both structures typically indicates a normal anatomical configuration, as they are essential components of the gastrointestinal tract. Any issues or conditions affecting these areas, such as inflammation or disease, can impact digestion and bowel function. If discussed in a medical context, it may also refer to specific conditions or surgeries involving these regions.
The terminal portion of the small intestine is called the ileum. It connects to the large intestine at the ileocecal valve.
neo terminal ileum refers to the 'new' terminal ileum, i.e the 'new' last part of the small bowel. It would be referred to as neo or new because the original terminal ileum has previously been removed. If you haven't had the last part of your small bowel removed you would just have a terminal ileum. If you have had the last part of your small bowel removed, you will have a neo terminal ileum.
